The Holy Bible King James version:

Revelation 1:19 Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter;

My interpretation:

Revelation 1:19 Write down everything that you have seen, and the things that you are seeing now, and the things to come that you will see.

The Holy Bible King James version:

Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.

My interpretation:

Revelation 1:20 The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks that you saw is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are the seven churches.

The Holy Bible King James version:

Revelation 2:1 UNTO the angel of the church of Eph'-e-sus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

My interpretation:

Revelation 2:1 Write to the angel of the church of Ephesus these things that I say, because I am the one that holds the seven angels of the the seven churches in my right hand; and the one that walks in the midst of the seven churches.

The Holy Bible King James version all together:

Write the things which thou hast seen, and the things which are, and the things which shall be hereafter; The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches. UNTO the angel of the church of Eph'-e-sus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

My interpretation all together:

Write down everything that you have seen, and the things that you are seeing now, and the things to come that you will see. The mystery of the seven stars that you saw in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks that you saw is this: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks are the seven churches. Write to the angel of the church of Ephesus these things that I say, because I am the one that holds the seven angels of the the seven churches in my right hand; and the one that walks in the midst the seven churches.
